Galleries
There are many reasons why you might be drawn into an art gallery. It could be for the love of art, the need for pictorial stimulation, a desire to be exposed to new ideas, or perhaps because it's a dry space to while away a wet afternoon. Maybe you just like the fact that most are free to enter!
